Reinterpretation of "Lunch Atop a Skyscraper"

"Lunch Atop of a Skyscraper" is a famous photography by Charles Ebbets in 1932. The photo depicts 11 construction workers having lunch on a steam-beam of the Rockefeller skyscraper that was being built in New York, 850 feet above the city streets

It became an iconic symbol for the labours' movement in the US, but also worldwide, as it clearly shows the unsafety, precarity, and life-danger a worker go through to build up the "assets" of powerful rich men.

In this creation, I'm reinterpreting this iconic photography by depicting working women with a child.

Worldwide, working woman are still carrying out and doing most of the domestic work. Women are working out, but also in, and they are still seen as the main responsible for raising and caring for children.

This creation represents the double burden, but also the solitude and invisible work of working women. The beam is also not linear for us, showing that is even less safe and more difficult.
